50 Best American Restaurants near Allison Park

“Friendly staff and great atmosphere“

“We have lived up the street for 7 years and have always been hesitant to order from here. We finally decided to order the wings to go, and they were so good! The price is amazing for the quantity, whole wings served in a catering size tray. The sauces (BBQ and ranch) weren't the best but we will definitely be ordering again!“

“We get take out from here every few weeks and it's always delicious. The order is exactly right and ready when promised. The sweet slaw is excellent. Burgers, pulled pork/chicken/brisket all yummy. Recommend!!“

“Absolutely love this place! Delicious food, great variety and very reasonably priced!! ❤️❤️❤️“

“So glad reopened back up under new ownership from other locations. Sooo delicious always“

“For six years I have been looking for a new favorite restaurant in Pittsburgh since my old favorite one closed. I have never found a place that had the perfect food and atmosphere I was looking for until I entered Lilith last night. Everything about this restaurant is phenomenal. The service from being greeted to the absolutely awesome server we had was excellent! The food had a wow factor rarely found in Pittsburgh. I’m not usually a huge fan of how vegetables are cooked most places and the veggies in my dish just blew things out of the water. You could tell they were fresh and local too. The fish I had was just amazing. It was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. Needless to say I will be back again and again now to experience more culinary delights!“

“Food was amazing. Location is awful. Came out after dinner and our car was smeared with ketchup packets. Wish it was in a different area, would definitely go back. Feel the area is not safe.“

“One of our top 5 restaurants in our decades of eating out! Inventive, unique, and well crafted cocktails to the Porchetta and Crab Trophie to the amazing Creme Brulee and affagato...All top notch! These chefs know what they are doing!!! Unfortunately, they aren't open on Sundays when we are normally in town otherwise we'd be here monthly!“

“Had an amazing lunch with great service from Deb.“

“Where can I begin… the food was delicious! Friendly service and real conversation. My family and I are from Indiana visiting for the weekend and we wanted to try Grandma B’s. Went on Saturday morning and it was so impressive we said “We’re coming back tomorrow before we leave!” Only to return Sunday morning and they had standing room only! Sadly my party and I were just going to head back to Indiana, hungry when they called us back in and said”We’re going to make room for you all up top.” They proceeded to prepare another area upstairs to accommodate our party! Hands down best food in service in Pittsburgh!“

“Finally had a chance to stop in and have dinner, I wish I had come sooner. The staff was friendly and courteous. The food and presentation were excellent. Definitely stop in if you in the area.“

“Been to 2 events there was amazed by everything will be back often and passing it along 5 forks“

“Loved the Strawberry Fields chicken salad, the chicken bacon Ranch Piadina, and the Pizookie Trio was so decadent! Dustin B.was our server. polite, professional, helpful and friendly. Ask for him when you stop in!“

“Wonderful venue, amazing owner. I went to see one of my favorite artists (Geordie Greep) and after the show was over, the owner was kind enough to let me hang around and get my record signed by all of the band members. She really didn't have to do that, it was very kind and I am glad I gave them my business, truly a great venue“

“We went to G’s for our anniversary and it was an absolutely delightful experience. Great quiet and cozy atmosphere, stellar service, and incredible food and drinks. Every dish was full of flavor and the textures were all beautifully done. Even the bread basket was amazing with maple butter. It felt like a 5 star dining experience for a reasonable person. Excited to go back again soon.“

Huge menu with unique options, and an authentic Chicago Dog that will blow. your. mind. A ‘Burgh staple for the glizzy community 🙌🏼“

“My husband and kids ate upstairs at Cafe Raymond last Saturday around 11:30 am. It was pretty busy and they told us it was going to be a 45 minute wait. Better wait time than the other restaurants in the area so we just shopped while we waited. The host took us upstairs and we were greeted by Jason. Larger groups can be a lot, but he handled everything really smoothly. He was friendly, checked in on us at the right times, and kept things moving without making us feel rushed.
Our drinks stayed full, the food came out delicious (especially the special French toast), and he made sure everyone got what they needed. Overall our experience was delightful and the whole lunch was enjoyable. If you’re eating upstairs, definitely hope you get him, he did an awesome job with our table. We love Cafe Raymond and will be returning!!!!“

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Justin and his team at Just in Thyme. Taylor was incredibly attentive and helpful throughout the entire planning process, always answering my questions with care. When I toured the venue, I had the pleasure of meeting Justin, and he is truly one of the kindest, most professional, and well-spoken business owners I’ve ever worked with. Brenda was also amazing—she helped set up the night before, listened to every detail of my vision, and executed it beautifully. They absolutely nailed every aspect of my bridal shower. There wasn’t a single request they couldn’t accommodate, and the food was absolutely incredible. The event staff was on top of everything the entire day, ensuring everything ran smoothly. Justin and his team went above and beyond, exceeding my expectations in every way. I will definitely be back for future events and highly recommend Just in Thyme to anyone looking for an exceptional venue and catering experience!“

Service Was Great and Friendly!

The Atmosphere was Cool! Reminds me of one of my favorite Cabin Restaurants up in the San Bernardino Mountains of California.

Highly Recommended!“

“Applebees is genuinely my fav restaurant. I’ve never had a bad meal or bad experience. This trip was no different. Greta service, great food. Our waitress, Tori, was amazing. Very attentive without being too much and very friendly. Another 12/10 trip to Applebees.“

“Love the food, great service and the atmosphere“

“We visited Cornerstone for Brunch. I had an omelette with leeks and asparagus and a white sangria. The food and drinks are really good here. Expertly crafted with great nuances of flavor.
Cornerstone is a bit overpriced for portion size but not extremely.
The service here is lacking for me. There is just a snobbish aura from the staff who only seem particularly interested in their regular, repeat customers. New customers seem to be treated with covert flippancy. Therefore, I probably won't be back unfortunately.“

“My server June is the best! She always gets my order done right. I am a vegan and have gluten intolerance so I have very specific needs. The Beyond burger is always tasty and I enjoy the fresh brewed iced tea as well. June always makes my dining experience memorable in a good way.“

“As a celiac, it’s hard for me to find a place where I feel comfortable eating and can eat “normal”. Our meal last night checked both boxes! Chris was amazing and put me at ease. The food was delicious, and I loved all the flavors in the grapple burger! Thanks for being so good to the gluten free community!“

“Great diner with great home cooked food“

“Had a wonderful lunch with my son there yesterday. What a cool place and cool history. Jessica was awesome and even gave us a private tour of the entire building. Food was amazing and we will definitely be back soon.!!!“

“My daughter and I sat on the patio for lunch and had a really great time! The Steelers game was playing on a huge outdoor TV. There only a few open tables because this place was bustling but not chaotic. A truly laid back vibe.

The menu selection was fantastic, something for everyone. We ordered spam musibi, pretzels with cheese and the tempura prawn salad (I added avocado and tuna poké). Everything was really delicious and beautifully plated.

I highly recommend City Kitchen...and Trader Joe's is just a block away. 🙂“
